10 Actors who rejected stunt doubles

Stunt work is one of the hardest aspects of doing a film. It requires months of preparation and often puts lives in some kind of danger as movies attempt to one up each other in terms of craziest action scene ever. While there are plenty of brave and talented stunt doubles out there to replace the lead actors when it gets too messy, some A list hollywood actors are having none of that and decided that the only way to sell the shot is for them to be in the stunt themselves. From Kristen Stewart learning to ride a horse for the first time to Henry Cavill getting SCUBA certified in order to do DC’s Man of Steel, these actors have gone above and beyond. Sometimes, it’s the actors we least expect to make an impression are the ones who end up surprising us the most, as is the case with Colin Firth in the Kingsman movies. Stay tuned for more of him later this year when the Golden Circle hits cinemas. Of course, there’s the craziness of Tom Cruise and the stunts he does for Mission Impossible, but don’t forget his Knight and Day co-star Cameron Diaz! Fate of the Furious was just another excuse to see Jason Statham kick all kinds of butt, which he does so well. So strap in and enjoy the video!
